How to tie a Feather Fleye Squid

http://www.flyfishinsalt.com/article.jsp?ID=39252

This may not be a beginners project, but it is one of the most fascinating baits!

MATERIALS HOOK: 2/0 Gamakatsu SP11 3L3H or equivalent long-shank hook
THREAD: Fine monofilament
HEAD AND TENTACLES: Long white bucktail
BODY: Light pink strung hackle
EYES: 80- or 100-pound mono and two 1¼2-inch silver prismatic stick-on eyes
GLUE: Cyanoacrylate or head cement

Tying Instructions Step 1: Prepare 80- to 100-pound mono by flattening about half inch of it, and press two stick-on eyes, back to back, onto the mono. Use a drop of glue to secure. Cut the mono so that it's about half inch longer than the hook and flatten the last half inch. Beginning about halfway down the shank, wrap a layer of thread back to the bend and then tie the last half inch of the mono to the hook.

Many Thanks to Bob Popovics for these instructions.
